Can't help you with specifics, but if you look in the 'help wanted' section of the papers, you'll see that these areas have job security "fershure"; jobs aplenty....at least until the medical community leaves Kalifornia due to the malpractice insurance costs (30 percent of physicicans here, according to some data I read, plan on moving out of state or retiring within 3 years).

Good luck!

With the stock market being what it is these days, my money says that most of these crybabies are going to be practicing a lot longer than they want.
